Croydon Harriers’ youngsters were on song for the borough last weekend in the London Youth Games.

The athletes scooped seven medals with the the boys squad finishing fourth and the girls ninth, helping Croydon finish runners up in a field of 32.

Tyrese Johnson-Fisher (100m) and Verter Oppong-Kyei (long jump, 5.96m), who are both travelling to the English Schools championships this weekend in Birmingham, warmed up with clear victories in their events to win gold.

The girls relay team went one better than their silver medal last year, clocking 50.30 seconds.

The quartet of Ola Olufemi-Krakue, Naomi Hoosang-Robinson, Chanice Gordon and Tosin Salami triumphed in a new championship record.
